Other Stories features a selection of stunning new photographic works from one of Australia’s most renowned artists working in the photographic medium, Jane Burton.

Other Stories is of a selection of photographs from her recently published M.33 monograph, which was launched at Centre for Contemporary Photography, March 2012 in Melbourne.
The works have a cinematic and dreamlike atmosphere, structured into five chapters the landscapes are rendered symbolic, psychological, of places imagined and felt, rather than actual or specific locations. The featured female figure is depicted as both woman and child, becomes a character that moves through the stories (photographs), as an animating presence more ghost like than a definitive persona
